On the sea east of Iki Island, the rain fell like beads with broken threads. The rain fell on the surface of the sea, causing countless ripples.

Suddenly, a north wind blew, and a dark cloud rushed from the northern sky, mixed with lightning and thunder. In an instant, the wind was raging, and dark clouds filled the sky. Suddenly, the original bead-like raindrops were connected into a line, and with a "bang", the heavy rain sloped down from the sky as if the sky had collapsed.

At this time, the change in the weather did not shake the determination of the two camps on the sea to fight a decisive battle.

On the side of the Hata family on Iki Island, nearly 200 warships of the Hata family and the Tsushima family have already set up a position. The Ouchi family navy who had just arrived was also swinging their camp at this time.

"Are those the Luo family's sailors who dominate Xuan Beach?" On an Ataka ship of the Ouchi family as the commander of the big ship, an old man who looked to be in his fifties and was wearing a coat stood on the deck of the ship, looking at the Luo family's sailors in the distance and said.

"Lord Yuan. This is just a part of the Luo family's navy, as far as the family knows, the Luo family still has a navy with similar strength along the coast of Hizen and Bungo. This time, in the name of avenging the last death in Chikuzen Province's Hakata Bay Ridge clan, the retainer of the Muneka family Kurokawa Takasho (also called the Soka Shrine Omiya Division) spoke out at this time.

"Hmm!" Mao Liyuan also nodded after hearing this, but he thought in his heart, even so? Next, let me Mao Liyuan wipe out the Luo family army in front of me first. Presumably, the sneak attack eagle will be very angry when it learns about it.

In May of this year, Yoshitaka Ouchi met with a messenger from the Hakata family on Iki Island. Māori Yuan also happened to be there. So he also learned about the information that the Luo family was about to go out against Iki Island in July. Out of the need to take the opportunity to stay away from the Ouchi Pavilion and avoid the surveillance of the Ouchi family. Mori Moto immediately took the initiative to take over the task of supporting the Hakata family on Iki Island.

Subsequently, he secretly convened the Iki Island Hasaka family, the Tsushima clan clan, the Bungo Kuni clan Otomo family, and the Hyuga Kuniti clan in the name of the Ouchi family in Bunzen Province to discuss with each other, and the parties reached an alliance to deal with the Luo clan together. Even after the meeting, Mori sent an envoy to Satsuma to invite the Shimazu family to join the encirclement against the Luo family. In addition, he also sent Hosaku to infiltrate the Luo family, and then prepared to spread rumors in the Luo family's territory when the Luo family began to fight on Iki Island. The rumors mainly criticized the Luo family's transfer of the wealthy family, in an attempt to incite the dissatisfaction of those wealthy families with the Luo family.

According to the plan, when the Luo family attacked Iki Island in July. First, the Wave family navy was used as a bait to attract the Luo family's navy near Iki Island, and then the Tsushima clan and the Ouchi family's navy had long been on standby in various territories and coastal areas to surround the Luo family's navy and carry out joint encirclement and suppression. Then he began to attack the coast of the Hizen Province and Chikuzen Province of the Luo family.

At the same time, the Otomo family and the Ito family in the east attacked the territory of the Luo family in Bungo Province at the same time, so that the east and west of the Luo family could not respond, so as to achieve the goal of attacking the Luo family. If the situation is very good, the Ouchi family will even launch a full-scale attack on the Luo family.

Of course, there were two loopholes in Maori Moto's plan, that is, he tried to spread rumors within the Luo family's territory to incite the local wealthy families to rebel against the Luo family, and at the same time launched attacks on the western coast and the eastern border of Bungo Kingdom, in an attempt to make the Luo family unable to respond. In fact, the effectiveness of both approaches is limited.

Under the law of the Roche family. The local wealthy clans not only lost their military strength but also lost the base of the support of the general people (who supported the Luo family), even if these wealthy clans did rebel. At most, he just pulled up a few of his own clansmen to make trouble. Such a rebellion would soon be put down. And under the law of the Luo family, these wealthy families are not without benefits, and they will not blindly listen to rumors, so this rumor method may be effective for the wealthy names outside the Luo family, but it has a limited effect on the Luo family.

In addition, because the Luo family implemented a standing military system, Mao Liyuan planned to launch simultaneous attacks in many places on the border to disperse the Luo family's forces like other wealthy clans, so as to find a way to enter the Luo family's hinterland, which was obviously limited. Because every standing team at the Luo family's border and the temporarily recruited peasant soldiers stationed in the territory are full-time guarding the territory border, the Luo family has enough troops to deal with these invasions.

Of course, because the Luo family has always controlled their own laws and regulations very tightly, the ordinary people and even the wealthy families only know the part of the laws and regulations that they need to know, and they don't know the laws that have nothing to do with them, which has led to the limited content of the laws that have flowed out of the Luo family's territory over the years.

However, the plan set up by Mori Yuan this time was not completely ineffective, at least this time it was a crooked attack to besiege Masayo's fleet. It's just that Zhengliang's side also gave them a "surprise".

Originally, according to the information that the Wave family received from the Luo family, the Luo family would only start fighting on Iki Island in July, but in fact, it was much earlier than the time mentioned in the information. This directly caught the Hakata, the Tsushima clan, and the Ouchi family off guard.

In desperation, the Wave family had no choice but to use the bay of Gumi City as a bait to let the Luo family temporarily delay there for a while, and then the Wave family took advantage of the Luo family's delay to quickly gather their own sailors At the same time, they also urgently asked for help from the clan family on Tsushima Island and the Ouchi family who were waiting near Moji Port. And Maori Yuan also happened to supervise the preparation of the water army in the water army. That's why we have today.

If Masara really attacked Iki Island in July, it is estimated that by that time, before the Luo family captured the bay of Gumi Castle, the Luo family's navy would be surrounded by a larger naval army led by the Ouchi family. Now, due to the urgency of the matter, the number of sailors who rushed to support Bojia and the sailors who had planned in advance was much smaller.

So why did this time, after receiving the request for help from the Hakata family, many powerful people, including the Ouchi family, immediately joined forces to deal with the Luo family, and even the Ouchi family didn't care about starting a full-scale war with the Luo family because of this, and directly launched support for Iki Island.

The main reason is that this time the Luo family's strategy for Iki Island directly touched the core interests of these powerful people.

For Bojia, whether he can resist the attack of the Luo family is already a matter of life and death for the Bojia family, and he will naturally fight hard.

For the clans of Tsushima. After Iki Island was occupied by the Luo family, he was about to face the threat of the Luo family, so at this time, Iki Island was equivalent to a barrier between him and the Luo family, and he naturally didn't want Iki Island to completely fall into the hands of the Luo family. In addition, due to the Luo family's trade route blockade policy during this period, it also indirectly affected the trade of Tsushima, especially the grain transportation that the Zong family also urgently needed was banned by the Luo family. This greatly damaged his interests, so when he received the initiative of the Ouchi family, he naturally joined the camp against the Luo family.

For Ouchi House. First of all, the Luo family is currently in a hostile relationship with him, and all the things that make Luo Masashi unhappy are the things that Yoshitaka Ouchi is happy about. In addition, the previous commercial blockade of Iki by the Luo family also affected the Ouchi family's commerce. More importantly, the waters around Iki Island and Tsushima Island were a necessary passage for the Ouchi family's trade with the Ming Dynasty, as well as trade with Korea. If this place is occupied by the Luo family, then the Ouchi family's trade with the Ming Dynasty and North Korea will be subject to the Luo family, and it will even be blocked by the Luo family, which is unacceptable to the Ouchi family, so the Ouchi family has to agree to Iki Island's request for help.

The Otomo family is always thinking about how to recapture the Bungo Kingdom as their lair, so as soon as they have the opportunity, they will immediately launch an invasion of the Luo family's Bungo Kingdom territory. The Ito family is worried that the Luo family is too large and will invade Hyuga Country, so as long as there is an opportunity to suppress the Luo family, they will actively participate.

Surprisingly, it was the Shimazu family. When he received a joint invitation from the Mori Yuan family and the Ouchi family, as an ally of the Luo family, although Shimazu Takahisa did not participate in the alliance besieging the Luo family, he did not send the invitation letter secretly sent by Mori Yuan to Masayo, so that Masara was in danger at this time.

"Lord, while the other party is not surrounded on three sides, let me wait for you to cover and escape from here quickly." After hearing that a huge ship of unknown power had also appeared in the rear, everyone thought that it was an enemy ship from the enemy camp, so they immediately advised the government to be good.

"No!" Masashi decisively refused.

"My lord, my lord begs you to leave the battlefield immediately for the sake of the hope of your family. It is the glory of the ministers to be able to follow the lord in this life, and now please let me be loyal to the lord. Fei Duan, Ahri and the others shouted.

"Please let me be faithful to the Lord!" All the surrounding retainers and soldiers knelt on the deck and pleaded with Masa-liang.

"You ...... What are you doing here? Who said we would be defeated this time? When have you seen your Lord Guild defeated? Zhengliang suddenly took off his coat and stood directly in the heavy rain.

"Stand up for me! Today we are here to tell the world once again about our undefeated legend! The rain poured into Masayo's eyes, nose, and mouth like a river, but Masara stood in the middle of the deck like a statue.
